Freshly Made Sketch #47 and Color My Heart Dare #11

Happy Birthday to nephew Brendan! I followed the sketch that I found here for this card using the colors from here. The Color My Heart Dare #11 is to use any or all of these exclusive Close To My Heart colors: Ruby, Goldrush, Honey, Sweet Leaf, Indian Corn Blue and Cocoa. This card uses all of them except Sweet Leaf or Cocoa. I also used my new CTMH Cricut Artiste cartridge to cut the numbers, gear shaped label and banner that matches the Hip-Hip-Hooray stamp that comes in this collection. A little bit of stardust glitter gel was applied to the gear label and numbers. I enjoyed working with this sketch:

Here is my card:

I really like how nicely these colors have come together--especially the Ruby and Indian Corn Blue colors. Thanks to the talented ladies that sponsor these challenges and for stopping by to look at my artwork.

About Me

Life is Good and it's getting better all the time! That's my story and I'm sticking to it! My life is filled with wonderful, rewarding things such as family--including new grandson, Antonio, friends and fun things to do such as golf, dance, rubber stamp art, scrapbooking and quilting. I've been hooked on rubber stamping since 1992 and became a Close To My Heart Consultant in 1996--16 years ago! Newly retired from education I have more time to "play" and create rubber stamped art and beautiful scrapbook layouts. I love sharing ideas, techniques and products and thus I'll be using this blogsite as another avenue to do this.
